While much of Sancerre lies on chalk soils much of the Vacheron estate is planted on silex which is flint over a clay and limestone base. This silex soil contains millions of tiny oceanic fossils giving evidence that the entire region was once covered by the ocean. It produces wines of amazing minerality and acidity with trademark smoky aromas.
Mineral-rich zesty Sauvignon Blanc primarily from flint soils in Sancerre. Aged in stainless steel tank for 8 months."
Most producers can only dream of an “entry-level” wine that's this good. The 2020 Sancerre is a touch flinty on the nose right now, and offers pure fruit reminiscent of gooseberry, nettle and boxwood. This has a certain ease to it, conveying a mellow texture within its light-bodied frame.
